As the darker nights draw in and temperatures drop, the UK could be faced with yet another storm warning as this week is set to bring more bad weather.<\/p>\n

In what has been described as a 200mph “jet streak”, wind and rain will doom any chance of “lasting settled conditions” following a brief break after Storm Ciaran battered the country.<\/p>\n

The jet, which has an average speed of 110mph, will hit the UK towards the end of the week, with the beginning of next week set to bring more rain.<\/p>\n

Jim Dale, senior meteorologist for British Weather Services, said: \u201cThere are a few lows coming in again after the calmer start to the week, and once again we are going to be looking over our shoulder for the possibility of another disruptive storm.<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of the reason for this is the jet stream which when strong, will always have the potential to strengthen low-pressure systems from the Atlantic into something powerful.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe west of the country is going to be particularly wet this week with another couple of inches of rain on the way, and while this doesn\u2019t sound like a lot it is around two times the average.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the next few days, it is going to be a watching and waiting exercise.\u201d<\/p>\n

More weather maps show low pressure is coming in from the Atlantic, meaning more unsettled conditions across Britain.<\/p>\n

Mr Dale said: \u201cThere is no sign in the forecasts of any long-term settled weather, as the weather will be dominated by low pressure for the next week at least. There is no sign of any high pressure, which is what would be needed to bring the calmer weather.\u201d<\/p>\n
